Here's a tough one (to me at least)

mail setup is postfix, delivering to maildrop.

If I sent an email to my catchall address, it goes fine. If I send an email to another real user, it goes fine. If I send an email to the real user, and CC to the catchall, or send an email to the catchall, and CC to the real user, the catchall never gets the email.

test email was sent to testing@the-depths-of-hell.com, CC to bob@the-depths-of-hell.com
Relevant logs:

Code:

Everything looks ok, but maildrop (which is what spamassassin runs thru) is never called for the catchall addy, even though it has rewritten it to be delivered to scott, which is correct.
I don't have a clue on this one. Hopefully someone else does.
